Vampyric Tyrant are a duo from Germany that plays a very raw, old school and vampyric form of black metal and this is a review of their 2022 ep "Zorn und Hass" which will be released on December 21st by Purity Through Fire.
A very dark, heavy and lo-fi sound starts off the ep while the vocals are mostly grim sounding black metal screams. Keyboards can also b e heard in the background briefly along with the solos and leads also being done in a very dark yet melodic style when they are utilized and the music is heavily rooted in the 90's era.
When the music speeds up a decent amount of tremolo picking and blast beats can be heard which also gives the songs more of a raw feeling. A small amount of melody is also added into some of the guitar riffing at times along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and one track is also an instrumental.
Vampyric Tyrant plays a style of black metal that is very raw, old school and vampyric sounding. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics are written in German and cover nostalgia, despair and vampirism themes.
In my opinion Vampyric Tyrant are a very great sounding raw, old school and vampyric black metal duo and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Vereinsamung" and "Totschlag". 8 out of 10.
